12. Holy Land? pilgrimage?

“mind? Are you Murakane? Yakkon style, did you play Chisora? I’m going to take care of him.”

“Uh, um… You speak the imperial language with a rather peculiar accent.”

I think it was around mid-teens.

Skin as white as snow, and silver hair that radiated enough light to make even that colorless.

Then, as if emeralds were inlaid, the girl tilted her head with her eyes shining brightly, and her ears were especially pointed.

… If I touch you, I will be stabbed

“Wow, didn’t you answer me?!”

“Teacher.”

At this time, a blond green-eyed girl sitting behind her, as if to accompany her, touched her side.

Elves have different shapes of ears.

If one side was likely to be stabbed, the other side had a perfectly elongated shape.

“ah?”

“Why don’t you just use magic?”

“Eh, if I can’t share a single point with my mother, can I talk hypnosis?”

“… If it’s that bad, I can’t figure it out. Even within the system, at that point… It has already passed the stage where it can be treated as a local language.”

“Really? What about you?”

“I am perfect. There is nothing wrong with speaking or listening.”

“Good-bye! So, the short ones… Tsk! Hate! I will not!”

“You do as you please.”

haha… .

They say that the stagecoach is ridden by people of all ages, men and women, and sometimes people of all races.

Those two elves, who were considered to have a priestly relationship, were unique.

If you look at one side, you want to be a wizard, the other side was fully prepared to the extent that it could be called an adventurer.

However, that wasn’t what caught my eye.

Is your face so pretty that your eyeballs fall out? beautiful?

They say that this is their racial trait, but… .

‘It must be a high elf, right?’

Even elves have a class, and rumor has it that if you’re just pretty, that’s it, but if you look at it and think that it’s not a human being, but a goddess, it’s almost like a high elf, right?

In fact, everyone inside the stagecoach, young and old, was constantly staring at the two elves.

It is said that there are so many eye-opening handsome men and women in the system, but if the criteria are judged enough to be evaluated as being combed by God, the number will be very few.

“With something that isn’t even special. huh!”

There were different types of stagecoaches, but carriages that could be ridden regardless of social status were usually pulled by five horses.

Naturally, if there was no luggage, it was possible to board ten people except for the coachman, and if excessive luggage was added, the boarding fee was added, or if the contents were appropriate, it was a line to see a compromise.

“Please keep talking.”

“Uh, um. What… .”

At the girl’s request, the middle-aged man blushed and cleared his throat.

it’s so damn pretty

If it keeps flickering in my head like this, I won’t be able to sleep properly for a few days.

Where is that?

In my imagination, I only had six children.

“Kuhm! That said, it wasn’t a breakup, it was postponed. He said he left on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in order to have time to look back on himself. Rueld-sama’s son.”

“It’s close to yellow, and the yacon food is awful?”

“So there are a lot of words. By the way… Rumors say that, or whether he actually went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, I don’t know.”

As if telling a secret story, he put his hand in front of his mouth.

Naturally, the attention of all the passengers also followed.

“It is said that you acted a little too much.”

“Do you mean haphazard? which?”

“In the academy, the royal family assaulted the classmates, there, violence against the teachers, even rebellion, including damage to property… said to be enormous. I don’t know the details either… .”

“If I stay, I’ll go, and if I talk about it, it’s not okay?”

“Well… .”

“They say it’s not a good attitude to preach rumors that lack accuracy based on interest.”

not really.

I don’t think I said it that way.

“It’s been a long time since Gya couldn’t do that. Didn’t you see this guy gone? Is it possible to be a monk who knows the basics?”

in a soft voice.

The sense of incongruity was to the point of uttering such bizarre language with a pretty face.

It’s not that I don’t understand it at all.

It’s really embarrassing.

“… … .”

please sir Some translation magic… .

It’s hard to develop and not use it at all. What do you mean!

Before that, why is it your responsibility to be ashamed?

Hamern, one of her many, many students, sighed softly as he placed his chest on top of his leather vest with a gray cloak.

—-

“hey. What are you? Oh, gather up all the information.”

“Is it really necessary for us to use language that has no roots like that?”

“Yanma! You have to learn how to speak your tongue! Is this short god an anvil?! Ern says! sudden!”

“… … .”

After going through that, it seems like he kept doing that on purpose.

what? Are you sarcastically saying that you should eat poisonous mushrooms?

“Do you know when to come?”

“Is it the imperial palace?”

“Call me your name. show the text It was a bit cheap if you peeled it off.”

“… … .”

If that happened, it would have resulted in diplomatic friction.

“Nya just! Hwang Che-do and Kwang-hu too! All of them are sluts like my disciples. At a time like this, let’s play a game of strength, shall we?”

“… … Okay, go quickly.”

If I keep listening to that bizarre language, my blood pressure will rise and I will collapse.

So let’s naturally hide her traces in the crowd.

“by the way.”

The silver-haired elf glanced at the system spread out before her eyes.

“It’s dirty in many ways.”

“Still, the smell of feces doesn’t vibrate.”

“Wouldn’t that pair be rather affectionate?”

“… … .”

“So, you short ones! Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!”

“You did that on purpose in front of me. Has confirmed. Anyway, disciple, I will move first to fulfill the instructions.”

No way, no matter how playful it is.

Even in front of the emperor and empress, he wouldn’t tremble like he did to himself.

… It wouldn’t be that absurd, Hamern firmly believed.

No, I wanted to believe.

—-

Humans are racial traits, they were all there.

within the framework of the human race.

On the other hand, non-human races, even within the same race, have uniquely different or heterogeneous characteristics.

This was no exception to the Elves and Yojok.

There are some who are used to the night like nocturnal animals, while others prefer to be active under the sun as if it were natural.

Even though the majority of people felt the forest was their home, not everyone preferred the forest.

There are those who are confined to the desert, and those who live with animals in the grasslands and fields.

The reason why the prejudice that elves are just a tribe of the forest was established is because most of the fairies are biased towards that side.

It was the Forest Clan that established the theocratic nation first, and it was they who were recognized for the privilege of upholding and serving the World Tree.

Certainly the most prosperous, most technologically and civilized, and even those that have continued and preserved time-honored traditions were no exception.

More than anything.

“Wow… .”

Even as he passed by, a young man was mesmerized by his shining beauty.

That it was beautiful, and that its appearance characteristics were eaten by the human race that dominated the continent.

It was a very important opportunity and a driving force for them to enter the center of continental history.

So, in most countries, high elves are always among distant relatives.

Some of the kings were halves and quarters, and although they faded, there were many who had certain characteristics.

However.

… It was not an empire.

In the midst of the destruction of countless countries due to the invasion of the demon king, there were many among the new countries without elven bloodlines and ties.

… But it doesn’t matter.

With their beauty, it’s possible for anyone to kneel.

At that point, of course, people aiming for it will appear.

The ability to prevent and block it was enough for them.

… within their homeland.

So, the elves who came out were threatened in many ways, but in a way, they were humans, and other races couldn’t be an exception.

In that sense, Empire is a bit better.

Slavery is recognized, but only for serfs, and even slavery is almost a legal occupation.

If you are a slave, you are treated much better than other countries who have nothing but despair.

And depending on your ability, you can even get rid of the bondage of slavery.

… The reason foreign slaves desperately came to the empire was not for nothing.

Going one step further from there, the empire was generously practicing even the effort to legally bring in such slaves to the giants and melt them into their own people.

Since the demon king invaded, the world has fallen into catastrophe, and the ugly things that abused it were prone to sucking the blood of the weak and poor.

In that sense, the empire is continuing its own remedy, as long as it does not cause diplomatic friction with other countries.

Not only inside the Empire, but also outsiders, without exception, if they want to belong to the Empire.

‘If the cultures and races were different, the conflict would never end.’

In fact, among the capitals and capitals of the continent, even the largest system had a thick shadow.

In the case of the slaughter district located on the outskirts of the island right now, doesn’t the stench beyond imagination vibrate?

And it seemed that such people were usually taken on by non-empires.

The same goes for beastmen and those whose skin is particularly red or black.

Those who were demons in the past, but betrayed them and joined the Human Alliance.

However, even within such forces, there are no people who have been neglected at all.

“It’s a crucible of confusion.”

Hamern skimmed over the area and was seized with various sentiments.

Of course, I didn’t forget the purpose the teacher had given me at all.

“Hamern? It’s been a while. how long is it? Is it 20 years?”

“… Less than six years.”

“Oh, is that the only thing?”

A red-haired elf sighed and sat next to Hamern, who had climbed the red roof.

Judging from her apron, she seems to have cut something from somewhere.

In fact, all sorts of things were sticking around the brown apron like stains.

“For an elf to cut meat. It’s new.”

“It is fun to do. The taste of skinning, skinning, and bone cutting is addictive if you try it?”

“I heard that hitting iron with a hammer was awesome the other day?”

“It was then.”

Just because they are members of the forest doesn’t mean they don’t eat meat at all.

There are elves who only pursue carnivorous food.

However, in the case of high elves, they were excluded for one reason or another, to exclude religious beliefs that required burning and artificial energy to raise their level.

Since there are many examples of deteriorating body conditions from eating, I guess I naturally excluded them.

“So, what are you curious about?”

“Kariel, I want to know about his reputation. as detailed as possible. Also, didn’t you say that Kariel and Princess Elhermina were getting engaged? You said it was canceled?”

“I knew that, and I listened and understood it from long ago. However, if you listen to it, you will be disappointed.”

“To whom? to the empire? Or Kariel? A family of warriors?”

“Please judge for yourself.”

After a while, she simply gave me the information I had previously grasped.

It wasn’t a long time by any means, but at first glance, Hamern’s expression went beyond complexity and showed a hint of bewilderment.

Eventually, she hardened her complexion, but in the end, she killed several people with just her expression and looked like she was about to hang herself.

recited low.

“It’s going to be crazy.”

“why?”

“Since Geornia is in the imperial palace right now.”

“uh… Why is he?”

“The other day, the princess called Kariel to break into the treasure chest, but she couldn’t quite understand it, so she called me to check on it.”

“… The title is an engagement ceremony celebration, so why are you here?”

“uh.”

Hamern did not deny it.

“But, it was his order that I ask you to find out about this now.”

“uh… How about going as late as possible?”

“To be upset by being forced to transfer?”

“Then I can’t help it!”

This is how it happened.

“Please feel free to confess!”

“… Please, let’s listen to it while we’re alone, and I’d like you to recommend it.”

“Because of his personality, wouldn’t he gather all of the Emperor, Empress, Rueld, and even a few others and make them confess? You hate working twice, don’t you?”

“Ha~!”

A sigh close to a shotgun ceremony.

Hamern raised himself from the roof.

“Are you going to stay here?”

“Perhaps?”

“… okay. If you’re lucky, we’ll see you in a few years.”

“You will be here for a while, right? Do you come often?”

“… A few months at most.”

“No, a few months is long enough, right? How many months before that?”

“mistake. how many weeks? few days? That’s the teacher’s heart.”

Hamern shook his head helplessly.

“Because of the newly introduced magic theory, I bet our ancestors’ name on staying for a while.”

“There is no such thing as an unfilial daughter.”

“When didn’t you?”

The two of them burst into laughter.

We only chatted a few times, but an hour or two flew by.

“Tell me later.”

Eventually, following the guidance of the wind, she climbed the roof and moved.

“Wait a minute! Stop!”

“… … ?”

Judging by his outfit, he looked like a guard.

It must have been that he was patrolling the streets, and somehow caught up with him after witnessing him.

“No, what if I keep stepping on the roof like that?! He’s an elf, so no matter how light his body is, what if the property gets damaged?”

“uh… .”

“Let me see your ID. You won’t be an imperial citizen… .”

But does it make sense to have a single guard chasing after you?

Is this the institutional level?

Still, after somehow explaining the situation, he was barely able to avoid being caught.

Instead, they had to ride the carriage again on the road with the guards on to the imperial palace.

It wasn’t until just before the sun went down that Hamern could barely reach the front of the imperial palace.

“… … .”

If I were to follow the road here, it would take me a year to get to the emperor and teacher.

cold sweat flows

Please, I beg of you, at least forcible transfer, please!
